We don't have much going on - except a whole lot of football! Peter practices almost every night until school starts and then we go to just 3 nights a week - what were we thinking! He loves it so we'll see how it goes but I feel like we are running on a treadmill all the time.
How cute is this kid?
Peter's "real" birthday - birthday cake!
Everyone wishing Peter a happy 9th birthday!
Lucas even came over to see Peter on his birthday!
Peter being a ham as he turns 9!
Everyone helps Peter blow out the candles!
My friend works for a hair salon and she offered to give Lizzie a free first hair cut. She just trimmed the mullet a bit and it looks adorable.
Trying to get a picture!
My big girl never sits still.
Tyler and Annie looking very bored at Peter's football practice - they actually had a great time!
Peter working out with the team - do I really have a kid old enough to do all of this?
Pete in his practice uniform.
Humoring Daddy with a little hug while he gets a drink.
Lizzie getting into the electronics - how cute does her hair look, though!
Full gorgeous face shot - it doesn't look like much but she did shape it and cut the long strands in the back off so she no longer has a mullet. What wouldn't look good on that cherubic face. I assured Auntie Meg that it can stillbe put up for the wedding!Lizzie had her 9 months doctor's visit today and she is doing fabulous!
19 pounds 13 ounces - 50th percentile
29 1/2 inches - 95th percentile
She truly is a bag of bones. At the end of the appointment I sucked up my mother of five pride and started to ask the doctor about her head - just checking to make sure it is the right size. The doctor's response was "Yeah - I checked it a few times to be sure but it is right on target." Followed by "You're right to ask, though, that is a reallly large noggin." Is it me or did my pediatrician just confirm that my daughter has an unusually big head??? Good thing it's gorgeous and filled with brains!
We also had a follow up with the cardiologist and there is no remaining heart murmur that they can detect - yeah! We have 4 well visits in September Peter - 9 year, Molly - 7 year, Annie - 2 year and Ellie - 9 month - We decided to do them in 2 different visits so as not to overwhelm the pediatrician's office. I have to say I will take 4 well child visits over 1 sick child visit any day so I'm not complaining!
Dress shopping with Auntie Meg and Molly tomorrow - I can't wait! Auntie Meg needs a veil and Molly needs a junior bridesmaid dress - we may have some non-weight watchers approved breafast or lunch in between!
Tyler and Peter getting cozy on the couch while paying video games - what is better than an impromptu cousins sleepover? Not much in my book since I always miss Tyler and Abby after a vacation like Newport where we are together for an entire week!
Could barely get the just showered girls to look away from the TV for a picture but they looked so cute that I still couldn't resist!
Funny faces! The girls spent the afternoon at Karla's house, the boys at ours and then everyone came back here for a sleepover. I can't wait until Katie can sleep over too - then we can really have a party! It's Karla's birthday tomorrow - I feel so blesssed to have such a wonderful sister-in-law!
GNM - ILY!
